MeidasTouch went after Jared Kushner and Trump’s reliance on him as a senior advisor in their newest ad: He went to Jared.

The video combined news footage covering Kushner’s exploits over the course of the Trump presidency. It lingers on the fact that Jared was denied security clearance and his incompetence as part of those in the administration handling the coronavirus pandemic. The ad ends with a gut punch:

When America needed leadership most

He went to Jared

We paid the price

WATCH:

It’s a low bar

Some Twitter users agree that Kushner could be a step up from the current leader…but a step up still isn’t saying much.

The idea that Jared is a better leader than Trump isn’t so far fetched … the idea that Jared is a “leader” is ludicrous.

Twitter users aren’t surprised that things didn’t go well with Kushner in charge.

Weird how placing a golden-spoon slumlord in charge of Middle East peace, the opioid crisis and the coronavirus response just didn’t work out! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Word on the street is the President is not too happy with some of the recent advice his son-in-law has supplied…

Read in multiple sources today @realDonaldTrump isn’t happy #HeWentToJared, especially for guidance on #BLM and police reform.

Would be an absolute shame for #HeWentToJared to trend. Bigly. �?�

Corrupt = Trump

Twitter wants to change the meaning of Trump.

I think this is a good approach. Don’t just target Trump, target his family members as well. Portray all of them as corrupt, as they all are. We need to have the word “corrupt” become synonym with the word “Trump”.

Describe Jared Kushner in one word?
Corrupted.
